Help with NILS

[fishwacker1]

Just received the new NILS 8" with Tanaka Power head TED-270PFDH today. I am currently doing the break in with 50:1 amsoil saber idling it for 20 minutes then going out and running it at various throttle speeds for a minute or two. Also am cycling choke back and forth at full speed because I read it lubricates something or another.

Anyway. Can anyone tell me or post a picture how the bit attaches to the motor? The Tanaka head has the silver adapter with one hole bigger on one side than the other. There was no hardware shipped with it "as a bolt" to mount the shaft(cutting bit) to drill adapter.. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for reading.

You are missing the bolt and a Allen wrench if they are still set-up like mine. Should have had a aviation style nut as well.

Just took a look at their HSOforum and you are missing some hardware.

Any specific length and diameter that I need to search for at the hardware store??? Pic on assembly would be awesome.

Hopes these help you out.

Thanks Jim,

Just was not sure if the head of allen was recessed and flush. Your pics solved it. Will take the silver adapter to the store with me. Have a good one.
